I have a cricket problem. Will this product help eliminate adults and babies? Will it prevent new nests?

Does not effect adults. This growth inhibitor only stops the young from maturing. Will reduce future generations, but is not a cure all. I had a bad roach problem which has been greatly reduced since I have been using the I.G.reulator.

It won't affect any insects that are already adults. It will keep any new insects from growing into adults though.

I sprayed this directly on ants and it didn't kill them. I sprinkled baby powder on ants and it worked (as did Chlorox Clean up). I've made boundaries of the baby powder and it blocks the ant trails until it blows away.

YES! This product kills cockroaches, ants, stick bugs, bees, etc. I love it. My friends all use it on their houses. I can't say enough good about it. This is a good investment, and it lasts a long time.

Yes, I have found this to be effective on many pests. You have to be careful spraying in the kitchen. You don't want to contaminate foods by accident. I find this product effectively treats and kills all of the bugs I have prayed it on so far. Being right by Indian land, I spray to keep away wolf, hobo, and black widow spiders. This product kills and keeps them away. It should be very effective getting rid of kitchen bugs.

Cockroaches are hard to kill. They hide in walls or the inner workings of old appliances. They eat anything (including each other). If you have an active infestation, it will take time to clear them out. To get rid of the bugs, you need to apply the powder (a light dusting is good) to areas the bugs are likely to cross over. The kitchen is likely to be a hot spot because they tend to nest in areas where they have found food in the past. Don't breath the dust when you apply it, but don't worry about putting it around food prep areas. It is safe to eat. If you dust your floors, leave it on the floor for at least a few hours. If you vacuum it up, reapply it in about a week. The dust won't harm the eggs. They can hatch a new generation later, which is why it is important to reapply. When you find a dead bug, flush it down the toilet. If it is carrying fertile eggs, they can still hatch after the adult dies. When you go a couple of weeks without seeing the little buggers, you can dust around the perimeter of the floors and counters from time to time. That should discourage them from moving back in. Persistence is the key here. Good luck! Hope to hear that this works for you. One side note. If you are going to vacuum this up after applying it to your floor, try to dust lightly. A little goes a long way and I have heard from others that too much in an area is not good for your vacuum.

I checked with my husband and he said "yes it does inhibit new growth as well kill current suckers". I know this is the only product that works for us and it is far more expensive at the local nursery. Hope this is helpful to you.

The larvae are under the soil, still hatching. This product prevents adult gnats from laying additional eggs. They (the remaining adults and newly-hatching larvae) should all be gone after a few days.

Unless you live in a cave you won't have cave crickets, but the active ingredient in this product will kill all species of crickets.

On the back of the label it says it kills bedbugs and gets rid of an infestation. With regular use it can prevent bedbugs and infestations to begin with so I'm not a 100 % sure. But I will say when I use on a regular bases I can see that it does of really good job of killing the bedbugs period including the larvae not sure about the eggs though. There were too spots in particular the bugs like to use as a hangout nest so to speak and the spray definitely cut down on it barely a issue now. I think as long as you use on a regular bases it will take care of the eggs and the larvae because it's suppose to kill on contact and prevent infestation. I know this is a little lengthy but I hope this helps answer your question this is a really good product and would tell anybody to get this and use it will save you a lot of sleepless night,anti-itch spray for bug bites and being in a bad mood because you got huge bumps on your body from the bites in first that you can't to do much about and have to go down on their own.

I gave my reply before reading the others. If it should render the other treatments less efficient, so be it. If the professionals used it, they would be out of business. Then they wouldn't need to come around each few months. We had used other stuff and this didn't seem to cause any problems. The roaches died and stayed gone. That is what we were concerned with.

YES, it won't kill them fast, but in a week or two, all of them will be dead throughout the nests as thy spread it to one another.

It works on crickets, roaches, ants, just about every insect pest. AND you do not have to touch the creature carcasses to dispose of them. These are great devices, simple, cheap & effective.

I have used this spray for years. I moved in to a new apartment , and little did I know it had bed bugs. The reasn why I didn't know for three months is because every new place I move I use this spray. Sadly it works on the adults and nit the poppy seed like children. HAHAH The complex had to spray my apartment more and do a full heat treatment but I had no other bugs the whole time. Bed bugs are every place humans are so the spray is not on places you lay and you can't spray it on yourself, but it does cut down on the adults so you can get control of the problem.

The Gantrol only kills the larvae, not the adults. So right now, you just have some leftover adults flying around, but the larvae should all be dead already. Give it another week and they should almost all be gone. Try some Safer Brand Sticky Stakes to get rid of those stragglers.

This product is not an instant killer and full results may take several days for complete eradication. I hope you are using this product correctly, it is a barrier meant to be used behind walls to prevent activity. Hope this is some help.

yes, and will reduce there population but this product alone will not rid you of roaches , I suggest using this as a tool to find out where they hang out , place under stove fridge under sink cabinets microwave ect ... then bait them with Advion Roach Gel Bait 30 Gram 2 Tubes 666301 .good luck

It worked for me. I had a recurring ant problem that left me killing ants every night when I got home and spraying horrid bug spray, just to find more ants the next day. After a couple of weeks of this and a visit from the expensive bug guy (with no change), I tried Riddex. It worked in less than 24 hours and I haven't seen an ant in months.
